Ririka has two great abilities that work really well with each other. Piercing Strike that allows you to hit a unit behind the one you are attacking for free makes trading damage super valuable. The combination of that an Absorb that grants +1 attack on kill makes Ririka a very good scaling unit for clearing the board and keeping your opponent down!
